  • Abstract
    Placenta accreta is an increasingly common complication of pregnancy that can result in massive hemorrhage. We describe two cases of placenta accreta, with successful conservative management in a referral hospital in Tehran, Iran. In both cases, two procedures were performed: compression suture (B-Lynch) and a perfusion-decreasing procedure (bilateral uterine artery ligation). We also present the results of a narrative literature review. The double B-Lynch and uterine arterial ligation procedure in cases of abnormal placentation might be strongly considered in fertility preservation, coagulopathy, coexisting medical disease, blood access shortage, low surgical experience, distant local hospitals, and no help.
